Re: [Fairlight-CMI] Emu Emulator 1 v. CMI IIx

Daniel, if the price is right just go and buy it. How often have you seen an emulator 1 ? I saw one on ebay about a year ago, over a 5 year timespan, and decided not to buy it. I'm more into Fairlight. If you don't like it, just resell it. Enjoy life and take chances ! Regards, Harald
